Previous Employer Would Not Speak To Me Directly

Philip Trenchak and his Office Staff have helped me immensely with my Separation Agreement from my previous employer. I was new to the area and had no one to speak to when middle management decided to make personnel changes while the CEO was on sabbatical. Basically, my workload was increased and the... respect given to me and my support staff decreased. I tried to defend myself by speaking to Corporate directly and give my A/P staff a raise but I was repeatedly ignored. They would not speak to me directly and told me to hire a lawyer. I used AVVO to find Philip's Stellar Law Office. They were very attentive, gave me specific options with fees on how to move forward, and were very patient with me and diligent with my case. Since my employer would not speak to me, Philip and Cristina were in constant communications with them and kept me updated with any new developments. After 3 months, Philip's office secured my Severance Payment and I can now move on to working for a more ethical not-for-profit company. I highly recommend Philip Trenchak to fight for your employment rights!

Extremely Helpful

Phil was very professional when I contacted him about my case. I had asked him what the correct course of action I should take, and he gave me a straight answer without beating around the bush. I was very grateful for his honesty and helpfullness. I would definitely recommend using Philip Trenchak to... anyone who has questions regarding their court case.

I would recommend Phil Trenchak

I had originally retained Phil for an issue my son was having. Phil was very knowledgeable in our situation and was able to take care of things when he received the paper work he needed from us. My ex-wife also retained him for some issue she was having and was also given the same professional servic...e needed to resolve the matter. He is very prompt about answering emails and phone calls. I have a matter that very recently came up that requires the need for a lawyer. Phil was not able to help me but referred me to a friend immediately upon contacting him. I don' know whom the 2 bad reviews were referring to? My guess it was a different Phil there complaining about.
